plasma dissolved proteins
albumins soluble and maintain osmot. pressure consume and transp. mater. 60% (liver) globulins 35% (liver) transp. mater. and immunity Fibrinogen 4% (liver) solube and clot
plasma dissolved solutes
electroly. used for cellular act. and osmotic pressure cations (Na+) and anions (Cl-) gases co2, o2 and n2 nutrients aa, glucose and fats wastes nitrogenous products hormones
RBC
erythrocytes
99% of blood
RBC function and structure
biconcave+ flexible
transport CO2 and O2
carbonic anhydrase
catalyzes rxn btw CO2 and H2O
hemoglobin
binds to CO2 and O2
gives blood red color
found in cytoplasm!
RBC development
hemopoietic or marrow tissue
hemopoietic stem cells
CFU colony forming by erythropoetin
(triggered by low O2 levels)
causes of low O2 levels
anemia, blood loss, respir. damage, high altitude, exercise
RBC destruction
120 day lifespan
3 mil. produced and destroyed per second
hemolysis
cell mem. leaks
alters macrophages
phagocytized in liver and spleen
hemolysis globin and heme
heme- iron + biliverdin
excreted
globin- aa proteins
WBC
leukocytes
remain in CT tissue
4-10,000 WBC/ mm3
defense
Diapedisis
wbc transporting from blood to tissue
chemotaxis
wbc in blood following chem. concen. gradient
WBC by %
neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils
WBC development
bone marrow
myloid or lymphoid stem cells
CSF colony stim. factor
(hormone regulated)
myloid stem cells
monocytes
neutrophils
eosinophils
basophils
lymphoid stem cells
lymphocytes
platlets
plug wounds
dev from megakaryocytes
10 day lifespan
release chem signals to o/ cells to clot
hemostasis
vascular phase
platelet phase
coagulation phase
*all triggered by exposure to collagen
vascular phase
dec. diam. of sm muscle in arteries
dec blood flow
platlet phase
chem sig. relases Thromboxane A2
inc. epithelium adhesiveness
attracts more platelets
coagulation phase
formation of blood clot
extrinsic and intrinsic pathway
ends in fibrin formation (net) from fibrinogen
coagulation phase- extrinsic path
triggered- outside chem. signals
damaged epithel.
coagulation phase- intrinsic path
triggered- exposure collagen
activates proenzymes and clotting
pericardium
outermost layer
myocardium
middle layer (thick)
endocardium
inner most layer lines heart
myocardium structure
fibers connected by intercalated discs
cells connected by gap junctions
voltage NOT cross cell mem.
atrioventricular valves
tricuspid and bicuspid
semilunar valves
pulmonary semilun
aortic semilun
pulmonary circuit (start + stop)
pulm. artieries
pulm. veins
systemic circuit (start + stop)
aorta
infer. and super. vena cava
cardiac muscle metabolism
aerobic (need O2)
get energy from fatty acids
create ATP
cardiac muscle mitochondria
excess amount of mitochon.
slow twitch = slow to fatigue
conducting cells
“officers”
maintain own rhythmn (autorhythmicity)
not maintain RMP
Resting Membrane Potential (RMP)
3 Na out 2K in
Repolarization k leaves to area lower conc. cell becomes more - inhibits k movement reach equilibr. of -90
Depolarization Na enters along conc. gradient cell becomes less - inhibits Na mvmnt reach equilib. +50
conc. of Na and K
K conc. greater inside
Na conc. greater outside
conducting cells MP
slow Na MP less - fast Ca @ thresh. MP + K leaks along conc. gradient make cell - (repolar) triggers Na in
contractile cells
more abundant
do all work
stimulated by conducting cells
contractile cell MP
Na fast rapid depolar (more +) Ca slow "Plateau"- prolonged contraction K leaks along conc. gradient make cell - (repolar) triggers Na in
refractory period
period where cannot be stimulated
prevent defibrilation
cardiac electrophysiology fun
measures mvmnt ions
SA node
where ion mvmnt beings
“pacemaker”
in top R atrium
fastest beating part of heart
AV node
inferior to SA btw atria and ventricle on R delay ven contraction (give time blood to leave atrias) bpm dependant on fill time
AV bundle
wave goes down interven. septum
Purkinje fibers
on floor of vent.
send ions up and to side of heart
heart contraction origin and direction
starts at bottom and works way up
flow of ions from SA
SA
AV
Ventricles + Apex (AV bundle + Purkinje)
EKG
electrocardiogram
Normal sinus rhythmn
P wave
QRS complex
T wave
P wave
atrial depolarization
atrias contract and move blood to ven.
QRS complex
atrial repolar.
ventricle depolar.
(spike is bigger bc more musc.= more cells)`
T wave

K+ leaves cell
EKG and pulse measurement
can count boxes btw P waves
